The Mt. Scott tenement (EPM 15854) covers approximately 260km², the centre of which is located approximately 50kms south of the Tally Ho workings.

The tenement covers a Cretaceous Age Granitoid intrusion (Mount Scott Granite) which is described by Queensland Government geologists as “a pink medium grained, slightly to moderately porphytic hornblende biotite granite.  A characteristic feature is the presence of numerous irregular miarolic cavities up to approx 20mm across.  These cavities are partially filled or filled with epidote, quartz and tourmaline and the granite is moderately altered.”

Exploration for porphyry copper and epithermal gold was carried out by a number of exploration companies in the 1970’s and 1980’s.  A number of low-order basemetal anomalies were established and investigated, but not drilled.   In light of our understanding of the geological and structural controls on the Tally Ho silver mineralisation we believe this tenement to be highly prospective from silver and base metal mineralisation.
